You can do this. The only thing you really have to do is zest an orange and slowly bake the peels in the oven. Everything else you buy in the spice aisle or order from Amazon. Fun part is taking a hammer (or wine bottle) to the spices to crush. Best part is having your house smell of baked oranges and cinnamon. Sold.

Things you'll need:

Steps:

Using a veggie peeler, peel an orange. Be careful not to use too much pressure. You only want the zest, not the white pith because it’s bitter. Don't beat yourself up though if you get a little.

Spread orange peels onto a cookie sheet. Try not to overlap peels. Bake in oven about 1 hour. This may vary depending on how much moisture was in your orange. You’ll know they are done when they feel dry to the touch and can be broken into smaller pieces. Don’t let them go too long or the peels will brown.

Once cool, put in a ziploc bag and crush with a wine bottle, hammer, or rolling pin. Remove from bag and place in mixing bowl
